Ancient Catholic Church – photographs

In this photograph, taken on 22 April 2007, Mrs Schroder can just be seen behind the flower arrangement. This was an “open day” at the Cathedral and an exhibition of items from its early years was on display as will be seen in the following photographs

A number of these historic items were loaned to Mrs Schroder by Mr Hadingham

The above two images were used on Christmas cards

“We profess to be a Branch of the Eastern Church and, therefore, a valid branch of the Universal Church, whose Symbol of Faith is the apostolic, eastern confession, and whose Orders through Episcopal Succession are derived from the ancient Eastern episcopate which is traced back to the primitive Church of the East and to the Apostles and to Our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Rt. Revd. Arthur Wolfort Brooks (1889-1948); founder of the Apostolic Episcopal Church
